    2:23 "Wild Gunman, never heard of it" "Duck Hunt, okay everyone knows this one"
    Funny you say that because it's actually the complete opposite in Japan! Wild Gunman was the pack-in for the Kousenjuu Light Ray Gun for the Famicom. Meanwhile Duck Hunt along with Hogan's Alley is considered to be obscure in the country as the Light Gun didn't do so well in Japan compared to North America and the pack-in is more remembered as a result although Duck Hunt is more recognized now thanks to the dog characters inclusion in the Super Smash Bros series.
    Also should mention that The Goonies never saw an NES release and only released in North America as a PlayChoice-10 game. The console version stayed in Japan on the Famicom.

    Playchoice-10 systems basically have two processors, the Z80 (Menu Processor), and N2A03 (Game Processor). They are basically a modified NES internally on a circuit board with some additional hardware. The additional hardware allows the menu processor to bankswitch the ten games, control an additional enable on the N2A03 control inputs, reset the game, pause the game, process coins, and run the external timer. When a coin is inserted, you buy a certain amount of time. When the time is not zero and a game is selected, the Menu processor will enable the N2A03 input buttons, allowing the game to be played. When time runs out, it pauses the game, displays a continue message (if enabled), disables the N2A03 game inputs, and asks for another coin. If no coin is inserted, the menu processor resets the game keeping the N2A03 game processor inputs disabled. If a coin is inserted to continue, the Z80 menu processor puts additional time on the timer, unpauses the game. and re-enables the N2A03 inputs.

    This makes me think that your channel is the modern equivalent of Motorweek": A channel of restoring classics as well as addressing the problems of "current" tech (which was based on "classic tech), only it's the vintage electronics we grew up with instead of the vintage automobiles our previous generation grew up with. Keep up the good work on your channel, because our parents (while tougher than us) didn't have such things on demand to remind them of their youth as we do.

    I spent $20 on one of those the first time I played SMB3. I had rented "The Wizard" a while before.
    I ended up getting SMB3 for my 12th bday in Aug. 1990, but since my Dad and I had the same bday we all went out to eat before I could play it, so I let my friend across the street borrow it while we were gone.
    My Dad worked for Sears Repair Service back then, mostly fixing TVs and VCRs (when it was still worthwhile). He _ALMOST_ scored one of the NES store displays that played 10 or 12 games (the retail store was moving to the mall), but somebody else snagged it before he could.

Also, Hogan's Alley rules! I remember coming across a Play Choice 10 with Super Mario Bros. 3 in it, before it was even out (after the Wizard had come out). I wanted to play so bad, but the people playing it had pumped enough quarters in to have the timer at like 45 minutes. They weren't going anywhere!

    I don't remember if I ever saw a PlayChoice-10 out in the wild, but I do recall seeing a VS. System during my childhood. Specifically, it was the VS version of Super Mario Bros, which was more difficult than the NES version with levels that were somewhere between the original and The Lost Levels.
    Kinda funny the fact Nintendo made TWO NES-based arcade boards, one that basically allowed to demo a game for a few minutes, and another that gave you alternative (and more difficult!), versions of the games you could have at home.
    And then there's my favorite trivia about both the VS. System and PC-10: It was the only platform you could play The Goonies here in the US. We may have gotten The Goonies II on NES, but unless you imported the Famicom version of the first game, you could only play it in arcades!

      An option is to build your own.
      The Geek Pub YT channel is hosted by Dave’s brother and arcade co-conspirator Mike. He has had a few arcade builds. He also has plans and parts available for sale on his website.

    That's cool. I've heard they make NES to Play 10 Adapters so if you can get any NES Games you should be able to play any game released on the NES on it.

    I absolutely love videos like these, and it's a delight to see the restorations come together and everything that goes into them. Anything involving a CRT TV is enthralling in my book too! Would love to see more of these, as well as some of the more comprehensive ones posted to the main 8-bit Guy channel.
    That lightgun attachment is pretty sweet too. Reminiscent of a S&W Model 581 or 681. And Hogan's Alley was probably one of my favorite NES lightgun games.
